Re: TBRW Awards 2024 - 4 weeks ago
Trotsky I think there was confusion about the Gage Award, given all the Kempf nominations. It is given to a player who flies under the radar, receives few accolades, and/or plays a particular role well. Kempf is as some of you noted the primary stay at home D on a team built out from goal -- the opposite of a supporting player. My choices for Gage were Devlin and Stanley and honestly it coby ugarte - Hockey

chimpfood I’m not sure that was worse than the Walsh call, much easier to call it when a stick breaks.yeah the stick broke but he was also playing the puck! it was right under the stick.by ugarte - Hockey

ugarte ugarte The Battle of Michigan is a great game. 2-2 halfway through the third.goodf lord Michigan scores a pair 12 seconds apart and is up 4-2. the first of two was a great individual play and the second was set up by an incredibly sick pass.oh man 2:30 to go and MSU gets called for a slash a million times worse than the Walsh call and Michigan scores off the draw to seal it.by ugarte - Hockey

Re: Recruits 2024 and Beyond - 4 weeks ago
Trotsky USHL. The Times regrets the error. It was not a shot. Rayhill hosted the Cornell 2024 video and was fantastic. Far better than the "talent" that comes out of Bristol.i didn't think it was. it's the offseason and we're arguing in the denver game thread over how much is the right amount of pain to feel. time to get stupid.by ugarte - Hockey
Re: Recruits 2024 and Beyond - 4 weeks ago
Trotsky If it's possible to hold guys for another year of USCHO seasoning, now would be when to do it.... If Rayhill has been a healthy scratch for 3 years I guess he will be pursuing a fine career in sports journalism...interestingby ugarte - Hockey

Re: NCAA QF - Denver - 4 weeks ago
BearLover My point isn’t that this was not a strong year. It was a great year. The ECAC championship was awesome. I will look back on it fondly for a long time. My point is that all of this is meaningless in the context of today’s game. These tropes make us feel better about the crushing loss, but they don’t mean it’s not a crushing loss. Like, we could tell ourselves it was a great year in one mby ugarte - Hockey
Re: NCAA QF - Denver - 4 weeks ago
BearLover The NCAA quarterfinals, like all hockey games, exists in a vacuum. It doesn’t matter how you got there, or how good your chance is of getting back there in the future. Once the puck drops, that all goes out the window. Cornell played very well, against one of the best teams in the country, but, for the sixth time in a row in this game, we lost. It’s crushing and gutting and I don’t careby ugarte - Hockey

Iceberg AIC couldn't have gone to Springfield since the site is their home rink. They probably would've played BU or BCinteresting! i guess they shared some of the administrative burden and revenue from hosting?by ugarte - Hockey
Re: NCAA Tournament 2024 - 4 weeks ago
Here's a question: based on the boards, it looked like UMass and AIC were the co-hosts of the Springfield regional. What happens if AIC beats RIT in the AHA final?* There's no way they send two four-band teams to play in Springfield, right? *Do not say "according to YATC an AIC win would have eliminated UMass" even if it is true.by ugarte - Hockey

scoop85 We had as good a look as you could want. Unbelievable save against Walsh. Unbelievable.shades of the 2003 semi hard-fought finish to a very weird year. postseason felt like house money tbh. look at that attachment. that's how we played down the stretch of the season. then we caught a huge break by having SLU take out Quinny; our road to a conference title wasn't materially harder tby ugarte - Hockey
Re: NCAA QF - Denver - 4 weeks ago
Dafatone Easy to say in retrospect, but when you lose your stick, just go get your stick. I'm sure this isn't what guys do for a good reason, but the stick wasn't that far away. Til a Denver guy knocked it to the corner, which he's not supposed to do, but oh well.i think Schafer was pointing out out to no avail. i don't think he could get his stick because he was busy shoving his man out of Shby ugarte - Hockey
Re: NCAA QF - Denver - 4 weeks ago
scoop85 On the DU goal the puck skittered past a couple of our guys near the blue line and their guy got off a great wrister. I still liked our game.i agree with RichH that it took us a few minutes to get going but we had the better of that period. we are ruining their structure on offense and they don't seem comfortable with the pressure we're putting on their defense. lot of hockey to play butby ugarte - Hockey

Re: NCAA Tournament 2024 - 4 weeks ago
chimpfood Great game, I’m satisfied with a Q win.Q hit another post then Wisconsin fell asleep on a diagonal pass from blueline to blueline, easy zone entry, centered to a guy skating in on the goalie and someone nominated for the Richter got pantsed and sent home.by ugarte - Hockey
